Reset HP Proliant blade server from ILO CLI

Occasionally there may be a need to reboot a hung HP Proliant blades & the ILO GUI may not be available.
In order to reset the system from CLI you can use the following command:

reset /system1 

Given below is a list of possible commands

>reset /system1  (Resets the server)
>reset /system1 hard  (Performs a coldstart reboot of the server)
>reset /system1 soft  (Performs a warmstart reboot of the server)
>show /system1 enabledstate  (Shows the current power state, where enabled is powered on and disabled is powered off.)

In case you wish to reset the ILO itself you can do so via the following command sequence:

>cd /map1
>reset

The above holds good for ILO 2/3.
